Control ensemble switching

I am using three WAC730's in ensemble mode.  How do I cause devices to switch more frequently to the closest WAC device?  Sometimes a device stays associated with a distance device.

    bmomjian,

     

    Happy New Year! :) 

     

     Sometimes a device stays associated with a distance device.

    How do you know that a wireless device/s stays associated with the distant WAC730 and not the nearest WAC730 in the ensemble?  Kindly post screenshot/s of it.  

     

    What is the current firmware version of the WAC730 that are in the ensemble? 

     

     

    Regards,

      I am using the most current firmware:  WAC720-730_firmware_V3.9.1.0.zip  Let me run some tests and report back with details.  Thanks.
